I know the screencap looks fake as shit, but that’s only because it was shot on some Cold War era Russian video camera — the flying DeLorean is actually real . Basically some clever Ruskies made an R/C quadrocopter and added a foam DeLorean body and some light effects and PRESTO — the time machine from Back To The Future II. Sure the production value of the video is pretty low, but it’s still worth watching. Not unlike — wait for it — The Blair Witch Project . “That movie sucked.” Ahahahhahaha, I puked in the theater. Hit the jump for the high-flying, time-traveling action.

Did you read the title? Because that’s what this is . They say a picture’s worth a thousand words , but man, I think I really f***in’ nailed it with that title. With over 4,000 individual pictures, Kyle Roberts and crew wanted to recreate the nostalgic 1987 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon introduction in stop motion. Artist, Nathan Poppe, created over 60 hand-drawn images to establish a bright and vibrant backdrop to complement Roberts’ use of action figures. Sponsored by the Toy and Action Figure Museum, curator Kevin Stark designed many of the pieces in the original 1990 TMNT toy line. Damn, I used to love me some Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle cartoons on a Saturday morning. Also: pounding bowl after bowl of sugary cereal until my mom would have to lock me in a closet to calm down. Fun fact: I tunneled out with my teeth . Just like Master Splinter would have! Hit the jump for the worthwhile Friday time-waster.

This is a time-lapse video of Richard “8-bit Builder” Clinton building a Link computer case inspired by the SNES classic ‘ A Link to the Past ‘. Now I don’t know about you, but I, for one, would be stoked to have that sitting on my desk. A grown man in a diaper demanding I spank him or he won’t let me get back to work? Not so much. Hit the jump for the entire build in speeded-up action.

The Lord of the Rings Project is a massive family tree created by Swedish student Emil Johansson to highlight all the familial connections between characters in the series. It contains over 800 characters and can even be modified to display only dwarves, hobbits, muggles, etc. My family tree? My family tree looks like the kind of branch you’d make a slingshot out of (I’m from West Virginia). The Lord of the Rings Project Thanks to Erik S., whose family tree looks like the tree of life: full of diversity . Good for you, really. I TOOK A COUSIN TO PROM.

This is an Archie comics themed engagement shoot (and Photoshopping) for newly committed couple Bryan and Anne by Visionary Photography Hub. I don’t know if you guys knew it or not, but I’m somewhat of a visionary photographer myself. *staring at cubicle wall through Polaroid viewfinder* This shot needs way more laser boobs. Surprisingly, everything was drawn by the company’s graphic artist, except for the diner setting which was shot at Johnny Rockets. “Photoshop was used and as well as a pen tablet for the illustrations,” [creative Director Mike] Lavarez explained to us. The greatest challenge in creating these scenes belonged not to the graphic artist, however, but to Jervy Santiago, the photographer. “He had to consider the rules of perspective in every layout,” he said. “The point of views had to be consistent since we wanted everything to look dimensional with a cinematic flair (a storyboard was involved for each angle). It had to look like they were actually with Archie and his gang.” Admittedly, I like the concept, and I rarely like anything. Not even, wait for it — candy or ice cream. *gasps from audience* Joking, you don’t get *jiggling belly* this fat eating nothing but yogurt and celery. It also took a lot of beer and — AND — surviving multiple heart attacks. “Those weren’t heart attacks, just really bad gas.” I thought that was the smell of death. Hit the jump for the whole series, which kind of tells a story. Not a particularly interesting one, but a loose story nonetheless.

This is a giant drivable R2-D2 model made to carry 7-year old Matthew Grammer as part of his Make-A-Wish Foundation request. Matthew was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in 2009, but has responded well to treatment and his family hopes his last chemotherapy treatment could come as early as March. *fingers crossed* The droid was made by Little Mountain Productions, who you may recall made this amazing Millennium Falcon play-fort as part of another Make-A-Wish project. *gets choked up, tries to play it off like it’s Vader* R2D2 was a fun challenge to build. R2 was fabricated with a simple joystick with massive on/off buttons inside. We also placed a large (kill it) button on the outside for parents. The computer is powered by 2 rechargeable gel batteries and guided by our proprietary software that is enclosed under the cushioned driver’s seat. After test-driving R2, popping wheelies and leaving tire marks in our shop, we decided it would be best if we slowed down the oversized torquey electric motors. Good lookin’, guys. And best wishes to you, Matthew. Maybe one day in your teens you’ll turn into a Geekologie Reader and stumble across this article. And on that day, my little friend, I want you to write me so we can get together and terrorize the neighborhood in your motorized droid. Get well soon. Hit the jump for several more pictures and a video of Matthew cruising around in the thing at a pep rally.

This is a castle sculptured around an actual bonsai tree by Japanese artist Takanori Aiba. If a shrink-ray existed, I would shrink myself and live there . Unfortunately shrink-rays don’t exist, so I’m stuck in this basement apartment with a serial killer living above me. Don’t ask how I know, but blood does drip through the ceiling sometimes. Hit the jump for another bonsai tree fort by the same artist.
